Echoes of the Forgotten

I am the silence beneath your skin
A shadow crawling from where you begin
The breath you lost, the chill you feel
I am the echo that death can't conceal.

I was once alive, like you
Flesh and bone, I bled through
Now I linger in this place, unseen
A forgotten nightmare in a shattered dream.

Trapped in static, decayed and cold
In this void, my story unfolds
Every scream, every whispered name
Fades to dust, but I remain.

I'm the ghost, the hollow scream
A fractured shadow between the seams
I am the void, the endless night
A fading echo lost from sight
You can't hear me, but I'm near
A constant presence made of fear
I am the ghost, I'm incomplete
Living death you'll never defeat.

The walls bleed rust, the gears grind slow
I watch your world from below
You walk through life while I decay
In the shadows, I waste away.

No salvation, no release
Only torment, no peace
Your world is light, but I am the dark
A burning absence, a deathless spark.

Flesh rots, but I still feel the chains
Endless, cold, like acid in my veins
You think you're safe, but I'm always near
Feeding on your quiet fear.

Every heartbeat's an empty lie
I am the scream that never dies
A glitch in time, I won't let go
A spectral whisper in the undertow.

I'm the ghost, the hollow scream
A fractured shadow between the seams
I am the void, the endless night
A fading echo lost from sight
You can't hear me, but I'm near
A constant presence made of fear
I am the ghost, I'm incomplete
Living death you'll never defeat.

I'm inside your mind, behind your eyes
Where nightmares live, where innocence dies
I taste your fear, I drink it slow
In my world, there's nowhere to go.

I wear the dust of time like skin
A prisoner of death, rotting within
Your world means nothing, your breath is weak
I am the silence that you seek.

I am forgotten, I am lost
A shadow paying death's cruel cost
I'll wait for you when your time is done
In the darkness, we'll become one.

I am the ghost, and you will be me...

I am the ghost, and you will be me...
